The Saudi champion Saeed Al Mouri, driver of Hankook Racing Team, achieved a remarkable achievement in motorsport for his team and for Saudi Arabia, where he came third in the overall standings of Hankook 24H DUBAI 2016, which was held last week at Dubai Autodrome circuit. Achieving this advanced position is a clear proof of his strong performance and high skills.   Noting that Dubai round of Hankook 24H is the first round of a series of  24 hour endurance race held across the world, and proved to be one of the most successful and professional car racing series  in the area.

After signing the sponsorship contract, Al Mouri commented as saying: " I'm very pleased with the renewal of my sponsorship contract with Bin-Shihon Group/Hankook Tire Co., after five years of our relationship, it is no longer just a financial sponsorship; we are more like a family, a family that I am proud of. I shall do my utmost to make them proud of my achievements and positive results. The result of the race was good, frankly, it was beyond our expectations. We have succeeded to be in the heart of the race despite the presence of more than 100 strong competitors."

 After coronation, Al Mouri said that the result was very good form him, and added: "It was a great start, which enabled me to lead the race, then an accident in front of me slightly delayed me, however, I managed to pass without serious effect on my advance. I maintained my position in the 3rd place for the remaining laps. It was a fierce competition, but, based on my vast experience, I managed to defend my position successfully thought the race and booked myself the 3rd place on the coronation podium. However, I have achieved the best result for me this season, it makes me very happy. I attribute my victory to my country Saudi Arabia. No doubt, this result represents a cornerstone for me as well as for Hankook Racing Team; as it comes in the early stage of the season. It will spur us to offer a great season."

 It has always been the famous right narrow corner at the end of the first high-speed straight part of the track that plays a defining factor in determining the outcome of Dubai Autodrome circuit, particularly in the first lap, and that's exactly what happened on the first lap, where Al Mouri continued his pressure and maintained his leading position and finished the race in the 3rd place.
